Amazing Original 1940s Vintage Teddy Bear And Faux Leopard Fur Coat With Huge Shoulders
This incredible coat was made from faux teddy bear fur in the 1940s. The coat was cut in the classic silhouette of the period with exaggerated strong padded shoulders that give a severity to the wearer’s shape. The coat features a wonderful two tone colour block design with a leopard print body that has been accentuated with chocolate brown sleeves, plackets and pockets. The collarless neckline adds further emphasis to the strong shoulders and the coat fastens with two large hooks at the front. Inside, it is lined in orange satin which has been diagonally quilted at the bodice.
Bust: 42”
Shoulders: 14” seam to seam, 20” edge to edge
Length: 40”
The coat is in good condition however there are a few spots of wear and bolding as pictured and some damage to the lining. The top hook and eye need to be reattached more firmly and the bottom eye is missing.
